Matches my experience as well. I tried langchain about a year ago for an app and had a pretty standard use case but even going a little bit of rail and i had to dig up layers of abstractions where it would have been much easier just using the original openai lib. So it might be beneficial if your use case is about offering many different LLM providers in your app but if you know you won't be swapping out the LLM provider soon it's usually better to not use such frameworks.
